Cage Organic Flourless Chocolate Cake

Cage Organic Flourless Chocolate Cake

Ingredients:
7 large, cage free, organic, cold eggs
14 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
14 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup strong brewed coffee
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Directions:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Grease a 9” springform pan with butter. Wrap the bottom of the pan in foil.
Beat the eggs with a mixer for about 7 minutes, until frothy and doubled in
volume.
Melt the chocolate and butter in either a double boiler or the microwave,
stirring frequently to avoid burning. Add the coffee and vanilla.
Carefully fold the chocolate into the eggs and spread the batter in the prepared
pan.
Put the pan in a large casserole or roasting pan and pour boiling water in the
pan, filling halfway up the sides of the springform pan.
Bake for 18 minutes and insert an instant read thermometer in the center.
When it reaches 140 degrees, the cake is done.
Allow the cake to cool completely before removing the sides of the pan.
Cut into slices and serve.
Berry Tart
Serves 6
When making a dish that relies extensively on the flavor of berries-as this one
does—it is best to wait until you can get the freshest and ripest berries possible.
Not only will they be sweet enough that you won’t need to add any sugar, but their
flavor will be fresh and pronounced, and unlike any berry you’re going to get in a
supermarket out of season. If you must use out-of-season berries, you can add a
tablespoon or so of honey to the berry mixture.
